    Where will it be shipped to? If you don't mind me asking. Just a "rim"? No hub or spokes?

      I just need the rim, I have a good hub and spokes. I live in Harrisburg Pa. The bike was in pristine condition till a car pulled out in front of me last week. I am looking for one with decent chrome that I can buff out so it will look right on the bike after it's painted. The bike has to be repainted

        I'll see what's up in the top of the garage tomorrow.

          Still looking. I found a couple "French & Hecht" rims. Bruce Palmer's book (2nd ed. page 193?) states they made rims for Harley production after 61 or 62. They have a Harley part #43006-62 on them. I can post a picture of them. Most of the other rims I have are complete wheels with a lot of them having tires still mounted.

            Thanks for checking for me. I would appreciate it if you could post or PM me a picture of the best looking one, I have one now but it would need to be replated to match the bike. I am looking for one that will clean up nice with jeweler's rouge on my buffer. I remember that name from palmer's, also Firestone. Thanks again-Terry

                Best one I have without tearing down some wheels.
